[00:00.00]A strange thing happened then ,
[00:03.41]I felt,as the rickshaw man walked away,
[00:06.74]that he got larger and I got smaller,
[00:10.17]I felt helpless.
[00:11.96]Then a policeman came out of the station.
[00:14.89]'Get another rickshaw,
[00:16.16]He can't pull you anymore,'he said.
[00:19.15]without thinking.
[00:20.11]I pulled out some coins
[00:22.07]and gave them to the policeman
[00:23.95]'Give him these coins'I said.
[00:26.61]While I walked along.
[00:28.25]I thought about the coins,Why did I do that?
[00:32.28]Was it a reward?
[00:34.08]Who was I to judge the rickshaw man?
[00:37.02]This incident keeps coming back to me.
[00:39.56]I'm sure it happened
[00:40.75]in order to teach me shame
[00:43.04]and to help make me a better person.
